I don't know why I listed Bloodlust as a BiS, I thought I already changed that to the Soul Charm. And I'm about 99% sure that the neck is from the BMAH, cause the normal version comes from the weekly quest bags.

Well, i got my 'Necklace of the Terra-Cotta Archer' normal version from Megaera Trash, so, maybe it can indeed be obtained trhough BMAH or quest bags too, but these are not the only sources of it...

So in conclusion, I feel as though Treads (assuming full agi gems) looks better, as 80 Agi is worth more than 135 Green Stats.

Now keep in mind that Quakestompers may be better than Treads for a couple of reasons:
1) Quakestompers has 150 more crit rating than Treads.
2) Haste vs. Mastery. As RPPM becomes more appearent, haste may become more and more desirable.

Even if you use full agi gems it still has less agi than quakestompers.

Hybrid gems: you would be trading 185 stats for 80 agility

Full agi gems: you would be losing 135 stats and 40 agility

Quakestompers H Thunderforged are bis.

An ingame comparison shows at the cost of 80 agi and 150 crit, you gain 2 sockets (with a +120 agi bonus) and 900 mastery. Well worth the trade if you aren't fishing for more procs with increased haste.

umm wowhead comparison isn't accounting for the socket bonus when using hybrids.

My bad, didn't notice that.

So I got Heroic Thunderforged Talisman of Living Poison (http://www.wowhead.com/item=96762) tonight from a coin. My current neck is Heroic 2/2 Choker of the Unleashed Storm (http://www.wowhead.com/item=86953). Prior to equipping the new neck, I'm already 700~ points over expertise cap and there is nothing I can do till I get the proper tier and off piece.

Femaledwarf is showing the new neck as a 1k~ dps increase. Is that because it is over valuing haste as per the usual? I'm 99% sure I should just go with it and be super over expertise cap till i can manage better pieces, but I figured asking around couldn't hurt.

Also, this seemed like the best place to put this, as I felt it didn't warrant it's own thread, but sorry if it's an annoyance to anyone.
